Eisbrecher - Eisbrecher

2007-08-18 / Nihil / Reads: 6451

Writing this review I cheer myself that this sacrifice of mine won't go for nothing. If you expect a relatively objective opinion, you'll get it, however, I must underline the word relatively. I think that Eisbrecher was thought to be something between Rammstein, Unhelig and Gothminister, and modern electro...
